The NIBCO PVC DWV P-Trap with union joint is used in residential and commercial drain, waste and vent systems. The PVC DWV P-Trap features a hub x slip joint connection with L.A. Pattern union joint that is used when local code does not permit the use of slip coupled traps. The P-Trap provides a water seal so that wastewater will automatically be trapped in the arc of the configuration, thereby preventing unwanted gases from entering the household environment. Please refer to NIBCO technical data sheets and catalogs for engineering and installation information. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is the most frequently specified of all thermoplastic materials because of its light weight, durability and cost-effectiveness. PVC DWV is easy to install and is joined by solvent cementing or threading. PVC fittings exhibit high corrosion and chemical resistance and will not rust, scale, pit or corrode. Color: White.
